Chapter 1784: Chapter 1784: Trust Him
His kindness to Zhu Yiping, Zhu Yiping always remembered in his heart.
Then, with his own death, he created an unending enmity between Zhu Yiping and Ningwang Residence to achieve his revenge.
These cruel acts of his, even if viewed from his standpoint, he could somehow understand!
Despite a thousand mistakes, at least he always held onto his benefactor’s kindness, prioritizing loyalty. Such a father was too cruel to his enemies and equally cruel to him, yet there was still something commendable about it.
Until now...
Someone told him that his father had actually died long ago. The father he revered was actually an enemy who would stop at nothing for his goals.
He treated a thief as his father for fifteen years, with fate playing a huge joke on him!
Once, he mocked Zhu Yiping for treating a thief as his father, laughing at Zhu Yiping for being a pathetic fool.
As it turns out, he was the one most deserving of mockery, and he was also the most pitiful of all.
Zhu Yiping was taken by enemies, treated a thief as his father, yet at least his biological parents never gave up searching for him—they were alive.
But what about him?
He doesn’t even know where his father’s, no, his father’s remains are.
He has died, leaving him a legacy filled with scheming, without a single consideration for him, without a single clue leading him to the truth.
Jian Shiqing looked up at Jin Luoyin; if not for them, he would never have known about his father’s tragic death or that he treated a thief as his father.
Perhaps, even until his death, he remained within his calculations.
Indeed, to Ningwang Residence, he was the child of an enemy. After Ningwang or Zhu Yiping’s death, following this legacy to deliver that letter containing the truth, neither Zhu Yiping nor Ningwang would spare him—he was doomed.
A father, how could he treat his own son this way?
It turns out he wasn’t!
Thank goodness...
Yue Rujing was right, flawless in calculations, yet unable to calculate human hearts!
He held no hatred for Ningwang Residence and couldn’t treat them as mortal enemies the way he did!
Jian Shiqing burst into laughter, but after a few laughs, he began to sob; he didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry.
Unsure how to vent those emotions fiercely colliding within him.
Standing outside the door with the antidote, Gu Youyou sighed softly, listening to the young man vent.
If there was an innocent victim in this game, it would be the Zhu family father and son.
They were just unrelated passers-by, caught up because their Young Master was the same age as Xuyao, making them convenient identities to replace!
"That butler? That butler, huh..." The person inside vented enough and spoke softly to Jin Luoyin.
Searcy stood behind Gu Youyou, whispering: "Why are you still not going in?"
Gu Youyou looked down at the medicine in her hand.
Searcy said: "I think you shouldn’t go in. Listen to that crazy demeanor; you might as well swap the antidote for a sedative. If he goes mad, with neither the Prince nor Marquess here, the two of us can only stand and stare!"
"I trust him!" Gu Youyou tightly held the medicine and said: "That young man is not foolish. His mind is very clear; it’s just these truths are hard for him to accept right now."
Searcy paused, then said: "You also trusted your son, and he still ran away, didn’t he?"
Gu Youyou glanced sideways at Searcy; after so many years, she still couldn’t help but want to strangle her.
She tossed the antidote in her hand to Searcy and said, "You take it!"
With that, she departed flamboyantly, while Searcy stared at the antidote in her hand, hesitating whether or not to add something extra?
